Hi to all!
I got a notebook with optimus technology. It has nvidia 540m video card and intel hd graphics video card.
As I know, these video cards can switch during play.
So I am running Spring... everything is OK but until AIR was built. If someone built some airplanes - my FPS slowed from 40-50 to 3-9. And strange looking black tails after planes appears. Take a look at screenshot: http://img805.imageshack.us/img805/8881/screen00000.png
I turned off everything at spring settings: advshading, shadows, reflections, dynsun etc., and bug is still there.
My infolog is attached.
I got my PC with i72600k and nvidia 560ti, so I will not play on this f#cking notebook anymore. But I want to report this problem and maybe such reports can help to improve springrts. This is my work notebook, so I can test more if needed and provide additional info.

Re: Strange bug on Intel HD graphics and air planes
i would guess that the black tails is caused by failing shaders.
maybe the slowdown is a result of that too.. i dont even know if it is possible to disable shaders in spring.. i would guess yes.. or there should be at least a widget that can be disabled.

Re: Strange bug on Intel HD graphics and air planes
I found a way to run spring on nvidia videocard only on this notebook and it runs on 40 FPS and without this bug. So this bug is 100% intel video card related. It was so hard to find a way to switch video card manually. I hate optimus technologyhoijui wrote:i would guess that the black tails is caused by failing shaders.

... it might help others (and possibly even yourself in the future) if you could give a short description here, about how you did it.
Re: Strange bug on Intel HD graphics and air planes
There are some related options in nvidia control centre:
Re: Strange bug on Intel HD graphics and air planes
I reported slowdown on this map long ago. I guess this is NOT airplane related. Try another map on Intel video to make sure.

I tried other maps too. My bug is 100% airplane related. Slowdowns begins when black tail of airplanes appears.slogic wrote:I reported slowdown on this map long ago. I guess this is NOT airplane related. Try another map on Intel video to make sure.
Re: Strange bug on Intel HD graphics and air planes
is the lups widget disabled? (don't know if lua shaders disables this indirectly...)

Re: Strange bug on Intel HD graphics and air planes
Disabling the lups widget should fix it.
Re: Strange bug on Intel HD graphics and air planes
or better disable 'LuaShaders'
